"Childhood is not a race to see how quickly a child can read, write and count. It is a small window of time to learn and develop at the pace that is right for each individual child. Earlier is not better" Magda Gerber
Today's guest teacher taught us about Salvador Dali and we were then encouraged to create our own versions of one of his melted clocks. Here are some photos from our lesson today.
I am an Early Childhood and Childhood Education student. We have been doing a lot of work with documentation, exploratory play, and environment in the classes that I am currently taking. I have noticed that you have a mix of photos where children seem to be unaware of the photo being taken and some photos that the children seem aware. Have you found any differences in these documentation styles? Do you use any specific techniques or styles to complete documentation tasks? I absolutely love your exploration-oriented classroom and how students' work is displayed on the walls. Do you find that giving students' this responsibility helps to establish classroom community?
